[QUOTE="Jerry the Jacket, post: 930000, member: 65"] I think going forward we need to look at everyone as temporary this includes players and coaches. I have said before, that modern day college football is a one year deal at best. No longer can you look at the game in the traditional way of offering a player a scholarship, bringing him into the program, investing in his development with the high probability of receiving a return at some future date. The top end players now have leverage and will come and go based on what they preceive to be the best deal for them. Georgia Tech will be less affected by this than the factory schools but we still will be to a degree. I think the key to our success going forward is learning how to manage this process to our best advantage. It would be more productive to embrace the new world and exploit it to our advantage, not to resist and fight it and get angry every time one of our players chooses to transfer. Let's get proactive in finding and recruiting other teams players that fit our needs for the upcoming season. I think you have to prioritze the year you are in and pay less attention to next year and down the road. Some of that will work itself out and you can implememt things to keep your better players in the fold, until they graduate or go pro. Transversly, you can also implement ways to encourage those underperformer to move on and free up scholarships for higher potetial performing players. Same is true of the coaching staff. You best have a pipeline in place and be prepared to replace coaches on a yearly basis. Just my thoughts on the new world of collegiate football. Go Jackets! [/QUOTE]
